Newborn Baby Jacob
I typically don’t use actual names on my blog, with the one exception being my friends’ newborns- I pretty much always out them 
THIS is the newest little love to our little close-knit group of friends. I’ve known his mom for….um….over 20yrs (WOW) and she’s one of my favorite people on the planet, and I’m so happy for her and her hubby that my heart could burst
So meet 10day old Jacob:
Someday I WANT a scale just like this….2+ years ago when I photographed Jacob’s brother as a newborn (seen here ) I saw this on their table and HAD to use it for the photographs. So this time- when they drove from WI to here for the session they brought it with them- I was SO excited. Thanks A’s mom for letting me use it again (and, ahem, when you’re done with it you know where you can donate it to….maybe someday?? )
And one in b+w…..I love his lips:
I insanely love his little mohawk here:
and one last one…they humored me and let me bring him outside to my hosta garden
Love you guys!!

He is precious. Welcome to the world, Jacob. Great photos to herald him in.

Oh good grief- I hate when I mis-spell something. The “are” picture should read “our” picture. I know you could figure that out, but it would bug me if I didn’t point out that I actually do know the correct word.
